Continuing Students

Files of continuing students were reviewed during the first two weeks in August for satisfactory progress, i.e., counseling, units completed, GPA, etc.

Students who are eligible for book services are coded EV in the STMC field 10 and listed in the voucher list.

A letter was sent to those students informing them of their eligibility for a $250 voucher with the condition they make an appointment to see their OASIS counselor during the first four weeks of the semester.

Once the counseling appointment has been made, and student attends first class meeting, he/she can go to the bookstore and access voucher (OASIS will establish a line of credit for $250 for the purchase of textbooks only and student can charge anytime during the first three weeks of the semester).

Students with late starting classes who have a balance on their line of credit will need to see the director for approval to access the balance to purchase their textbooks. Requesting an extension on the voucher credit line is contingent on the student having seen an OASIS counselor at least once during the current term.

New Students

To be considered for an OASIS Book Voucher, the new student must be accepted into the OASIS program not only by verification and application completion; the student must also have attended an OASIS program orientation, one counseling session with an OASIS counselor and have a current SEP on file.

New Students entering the OASIS program who have been disqualified from financial ad because of unsatisfactory academic progress or who are on academic probation may not be considered for a book voucher. The director will determine acceptance and eligibility for a book voucher on a case-by-case basis.

Madera students follow the same procedures with Yer Lee or come to the Reedley campus to satisfy the program requirement.

Clovis students must come to the Reedley Campus to satisfy program requirements.

DSPS students are still required to attend an OASIS program orientation. Either individually or in a group setting with the director. Additionally, the DSPS student must meet with the program director each term to review the DSPS/OASIS agreement and verify continued participation. A current completed 4-6 semesters SEP must also be in OASIS student file.
